Week 1 reflection for mixcraft work- In week 1 me and Messiah quite a bit of progress on the mixcraft work even though it was a little bit confusing we were able to properly get on the ground bass, part 1, 2 and 3 which I think sounded very good at the end of what we did and there might have been a few mistakes in part 3 but it still sounded good and then we started working on doing our part 4! I played ground bass part 1 and 2 and Messiah played part 3!
Week 2 reflection for mixcraft work- In week 2 me and Messiah made lesser progress than we made in week 1 on mixcraft since it was very hard to play part 4 and 5 in the right metronome and get it in the proper beat so it matches up with all the rest of the pieces and the ground bass. It took us a very long time because we kept making a silly mistake or getting the beat wrong because we played it too slow and we had to keep deleting it over and over again. Even though we had these problems we still were able to play part 4 and 5 but had a few minor mistakes which can be fixed for improvement!
Week 3 reflection for mixcraft work- In week 3 me and Messiah made the same amount of progress we made in week 2 on mixcraft because of part 6 which was the hardest piece to play out of all the parts that were there in the coolio piece. Messiah was playing part 6 and he would keep playing it for too long because the beats were too long and then it just ruined the entire part so we had to keep deleting it and doing it again. Even I tried to do that part but it didn't work out much so I think part 6 was one of the biggest mistakes we made in the entire coolio piece. Part 7 was still good and I was able to play it without any trouble since it didn't have much notes and I think I traveled in the right direction!

My reflection on my coolio work in mixcraft!
I have made a lot of progress with my coolio work in music and I think I have completed all the parts of the coolio work along with the ground bass with my partner Messiah. I had played the ground bass, he played part 1,I played part 2, he played part 3, I played part 4, I also played part 5 and he played part 6 and then I played part 7! I was able to play the first couple of parts properly and well but it was hard at the end especially with part 5 where it had to be in time with the metronome and it wasn't easy for me to do that. I was able to edit all my work and put it in the order that it was supposed to be in but I didn't add the instrument sounds into it! I developed my skills in playing the coolio piece of music since I was able to time most of the parts well and play it on the exact beat where some of them were a quaver or crotchet. Next time if I had to improve my piece of work I would definitely have worked better with mixcraft and been able to edit much better since I would have been used to it and maybe try playing part 5 in time with the metronome because it wasn't possible this time and try to add another instrument to the piece! I wasn't able to play part 5 that well maybe because I wasn't able to play it properly in the music room as well because I didn't time it on each beat there as well. There was a lot of process behind making the piece of music since it took a long time to get at least a couple of those parts in time with the metronome otherwise I would have to keep deleting it and starting again! I solved the problem of that by asking for help from the teacher and seen her play it. The final result of my piece sounded very good but at some points like part 6 Messiah played it too long and then it didn't sound very good over there but overall it sounded good at the start and end. Next time to improve I will surely try to time all the parts as well as I can!

Week 1: In week 1 I made quiet a lot of progress and I was on the same level as most of the people in the class. I think that I was able to play the ground bass, Part 1 and Part 2 quiet well at a medium pace. I don't think I made any mistakes for the ground bass, part 1 and part 2 and I didn't feel confused at all in any of the parts in the pieces. Here is a video for you to listen to what I played!
Week 3: In this last week I was able
to play part 5 and 7 quite well and I was able to t play part 6 which was in between them and it was to hard to get it all right! I think I made a couple of mistakes playing the part 5 and 7 because I think I play it on the wrong side of the keyboard and made some of the notes I played were wrong. I think I made a lot of progress by learning almost all of the parts but not being able to play it with the ground bass in these 3 weeks. I was also on the same stage as most of the people in the class.
( All videos are there starting from ground bass,part 1 and part 2, then it goes to part 4 and part 3, then it goes to part 7,6 and 5)
Week 2: In week 2 I also made quiet I a lot of progress and I was again on the same level of most of the people in the class as I was able to play the ground bass, part 1, part 2, part 3 and part 4 now properly. I wasn't able to play the ground bass and the other parts together and I was a little bit confused about the parts when it has the same letter but it is on a different side of the keyboard. I again have videos of Part 3 and Part 4 not played together and I might have made the mistakes that I mentioned.
Week 3: In this last week I was able
to play part 5 and 7 quite well and I was able to t play part 6 which was in between them and it was to hard to get it all right! I think I made a couple of mistakes playing the part 5 and 7 because I think I play it on the wrong side of the keyboard and made some of the notes I played were wrong. I think I made a lot of progress by learning almost all of the parts but not being able to play it with the ground bass in these 3 weeks.
